Cleroclytus semirufus is distributed from Central Asia and Afghanistan to Mongolia and northwestern China. Three subspecies have been described to date: C. s. semirufus Kraatz, 1884, C. s. collaris Jakovlev, 1885 and C. s. savitsky Lazarev, 2014. The subspecies discussed here is known to occur in Afghanistan, Kirgizia, Kazakhstan and the Xinjiang region in China ( Danilevsky 2001a , 2018a ). According to the literature, it inhabits various habitats such as mountain and submountain forests ( Plavilstshikov 1940 ), steppes ( Kadyrbekov and Tleppaeva 1997 ) and tugay forests ( Borissova 2018 ). The species is strongly polyphagous; its larvae develop in the twigs, inter alia, of Salix , Populus and Rosa ( Kadyrbekov and Tleppaeva 1997 , Ishkov and Kadyrbekov 2004 ). The imagines are active from May to July and can be found on their host plants as well as on various blossoming plant species ( Plavilstshikov 1940 ). Numerous individuals were collected on the flowers of the hoary cress Lepidium draba (Fig. 12E). Additionally, many specimens were reared from the inhabited material of various plant species: Berberis vulgaris (Fig. 12F), Fraxinus sogdiana , Elaeagnus angustifolia and Acer sp. The wood collected in Aynabulak turned out to be sympatrically infested with the larvae of two rather rare Bostrichidae species (det. et coll. J. Borowski): Enneadesmus scopini (Fursov, 1936) (> 30 exx.) and Lyctus turkestanicus (Lesne, 1935) (2 exx.).
